At the Konoha hospital...

Crash's P.O.V.

"I need ." I say. "Yes Crash I was just getting back from lunch. So what can I do for you?" he then looked at Seth. "I assume something is wrong with the boy. You want me to take a look at him?" "That's the main idea." "Follow me." So I followed my friend Hayate to an examination room where he told me to put the kid on the bed. He then made the hand for the Byakugan before his eye's changed and he began to examine him. "Hmm… This is different from the last time I saw him. It looks like 2 new pockets of chakra had opened up. But these two pools have also cross over I think you already know what it is." "Correct I do." "Good because I noticed something in his chest it seems to be a sack of some sort it's partially connected to his stomach. While his throat and mouth it seemed to developed a fire resistance. There is also a palatal valve similar to a dragon's connect to it." Hayate said. "Oh yeah I remeber that that was my first mission we were to be transporting money. Until we got ambushed and lost that cart. We would have never found it that day if it neer happened."

"Hey what are you talking I wanna know?" "To make it simple to you. Your friend somehow got dragon DNA and chakra mixed in his system. But it doesn't seem to be causing any harm infact it seems to be aiding him." "Cool!" "Yes I know its facinating now you can take your friend and go all he need is some rest and time for his body to adjust. He should be back on his feet in no time. Just make sure he gets plent of fluids and he should be fine." "Thank you Mr. Hyuga." Naruto said before he went and picked up Seth to take him home. I stayed. "Crash." "Yeah?" "Don't use those smelling salts you have again their expired the ammonia had knocked him out." "Well I guess it was about time to get rid of them." I said as I took the smeeling salts I had; out and threw them in the trash. "I guess I'll see you around Hayate." I said before I left.

a few hours later at the Konoha memorial...

When I had arrived at the memorial I found Kakashi just standing there staring at it. "Kakashi!" I yelled trying to get his attention. He didn't even move so I walked up next to him to investigate. To my surprise he was asleep standing up. That is some pure dedication. Well time to break it. I reached into his pocket and pulled out his book. It didn't seem to wake I was about to pull out his bookmark until a hand stopped me. "I wouldn't that if I were you. I'm so close to finishing it." I left it alone and gave the book back even though I didn't want to. Kakashi put the book back in his pouch. "Now that you got my attention what do you want?" "I came to talk about Naruto. I think he's going to try and get a C rank mission." "Okay I say they all ready especially Seth. He's really been trying his best even when the odds are against him."
